#92: get-entries needs to return the whole X509ChainEntry

 The "extra_data" returned by get-entries currently says:
   'In the case of an X509ChainEntry, this is the "certificate_chain"'

 This is insufficient.  A client that calls get-entries also needs the
 actual leaf certificate, so that they may verify that the leaf cert really
 was signed by the appropriate CA private key.  (Without this, the client
 would have to trust that the log performed that verification, unless the
 client happens to stumble upon that particular leaf cert some other
 source).
